    Description: Chester Cathedral candlelight concert
    We're very excited to be performing next month on Thursday 23rd October at Chester Cathedral alongside the Northern String Quartet in aid of Sands, the UK's leading pregnancy and baby loss charity.

    Come and support us and a very worthwhile cause for what will be an epic night of music. We'll likely be rolling out a couple new tunes as well!

    The Northern String Quartet is highly acclaimed and recognised for its versatility and musical excellence, performing on platforms such as BBC2, ITV1 and Netflix. The quartet is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. Their recordings for BBC Radio have further established them as a leading force in the classical music scene.

    Cottontown Chorus is a multi-award winning acapella group. Having won 24 awards over the last 25 years, 2 of those earlier this year, they are one of the UK's best kept secrets. Their tight harmonies, established through hours of practice, provide an audible feast!

    Their performances will be compered by Joy Winkler, a former Cheshire Poet Laureate and author of several poetry collections, a novel called 'Morgan' and an acclaimed piece of theatre called 'Lightening under their Skirts',  amongst other works. Joy is currently Writer in Residence at RHS Tatton.

    There will be two halves to the evening of about 1 hour each, with both acts performing. There will be an interval in between with refreshments available from the Chester Cathedral bar.

    An Early Bird Discount is available at £5 per ticket until 30th September 2025. Just enter SANDS5 at the checkout.
